Nobody really knows what programming language they like from the get go. I liked Java in the beginning but hated it later. I hated C in the beginning and loved it later. All of that is beside the point. My main argument was to learn Data Structures, Fundamentals of CompSci with a Low Level programming language before you try to do anything easy and flashy. You will not get far with that knowledge. You can learn it form a book theoretically and apply it anywhere you like. It's just in my personal experience its easier to learn in C cause you are forced to understand everything while applying it.
long raft
i learned all that in BASIC and it was fine
also C is high level, whys everyone calling it low level now
cloud magnet
also C is high level, whys everyone calling it low level now
Objectively I'd say its mid-level but people call it low level for some reason
long raft
C is good for readable code you can understand and debug simply, but it also will take 10x longer to do the same crap
theres no reason you cant implement your first linked list in java
pliant prism
I liked Java in the beginning but hated it later
i freaking hated java, and now i am in a love/hate relationship with it, mostly because our data access objects suck, we literally got a quintillion classes that form single data access objects to interact with our databases
long raft
yes everyone that has to work with java love/hates it
pliant prism
here's the thing - the language itself is not that bad, except that it's so fucking verbose
long raft
you hate it while youre using it, you love it when you look at c++
pliant prism
java has been ruined by people like myself who write shit code lmao
long raft
its also an ugly clumbsy language by modern standards
c# just blows it away in performance and elegance and capability
cloud magnet
> I liked Java in the beginning but hated it later
i freaking hated java, and no...
Oh I hate it because of it's performance. I mean my Laptop back in the day wasnt good but holy hell did my self made "Java Calculator" crash every single time. If he didnt crash the output comes out in 30 seconds
pliant prism

plus writing code in java is often wordy, like C

they call it next-gen java, yet it feels so ...functional?

functional is whats hot now

yeah, but i strongly believe, when it comes to paradigms, that object-oriented kicks ass

i believe that async/await made the community "dumber", since you ain't learning how threads work
long raft
yea after BASIC. talk about the bends
long raft
i believe that async/await made the community "dumber", since you ain't learning...
async is not threading, necessarily
pliant prism
yup
but for example
in a single-threaded language
if you await for something ,the whole thread is blocked
long raft
yea but thats ... not what async is
thats just tasks or threads
async will suspend when it hits a block and run code elsewhere using a saved state
long raft
so it can all be single threaded, code is jumping around
it is similar to the compiler trick they use for iterators
pliant prism
yeah, like in the JS event loop, push off all async stuff aside until the synchronous code is done executing
long raft
you can use async and multithreading together to do that stuff
i use async in single threaded applications, it works amazingly with the actor model
pliant prism
i love how elegantly go handles this with goroutines
long raft
yea ... i liked go too but its not ... real async
pliant prism
true
long raft
im not sure if internally it can work like that or not
i suspect they just spin up threads or use threadpools for everything
youll see in async programs just a single thread

i fell in this state of "depression" from which i cannot bring myself out of for some reason. i enjoy working, even though i've been stuck with this stupid JIRA ticket for two months (not due to my lack of knowledge, but due to not knowing the silly 12 year old codebase this code lives in lmao)

I see the only information available via API is war data, is there plans on possibly adding user data? Eg. Kills/Deaths/Time in war/What wars participated.... (Could extend this to Hits, Gear lost etc...)
I think it would be really cool to see how you are contributing (or hurting) in the war... and also be able to share to others how you are doing. A lot of cool designs could be created from this too
For gear lost track it at death, not on drop as well
Could even create community goals/activities, Eg. First to 1000 kills or First to 20 mammon destructions
pure sierra
@rough cometfrom what devs have said about personal stats/level no
rough comet
statistics are the coolest thing about a game sometimes
rough comet
Do you know why they said no? It isnt like it is hard to implement
olive hamlet
It isn't as simple as you think ^^
The API isn't tightly coupled to the gamez afaik it sits adjacent to it basically
And also its a very very niche use case and small feature and they are a small team and have to prioritise gameplay features or API updates. One of those will always win 😛
rough comet
idk what you mean by sits adjacent to it. It is already known when you die, it is just the matter of updating the database with the count and opening up endpoints to get t he data
pure sierra
@rough comet while there would technical aspects to the reason, the main one is the development team don't want the game to become about building points or levels. You could hear this sentiment from Mark during today's dev stream when they announced the region activity log feature to help stop griefing

@long raft did you end up aligning the world, @tropic cargo might be going to have a go
long raft
nah i just did the one region, i tried a few others but found it to be very hard
pure sierra
ok, @tropic cargo might be going to just do it by eye, he's behind better map mod
long raft
how can it even be done by eye?
this is just to make the borders look smoother i guess?
pure sierra
yes, once you have the individual maps loaded/tiled in blender, adjust each's brightness and contrast to get them to hopefully match
pure sierra
what ?
long raft
theres not enough height variation on the borders
so youre not really lining things up, youre just messing with brightness only
pure sierra
what do yo mean ?
pure sierra
which way ?
long raft
if its a smooth slope along the border like / you can easily match the brightness and contrast along the whole border
then you have a perfect scale
but the borders are like ____
so youre adjusting contrast, or brightness, but you cant really figure out both
some borders have more variation, like the first one i worked on
there were two land bridges at differnet height values
but i think the devs have smoothed out almost all height difference along borders trying to get them to be level
pure sierra
so you mean the bordering edges within a region are not at same heigth ?
long raft
they are like all the same height
like if you are adjusting two images to be the same on the edge with brightness and contrast, if the border is a gradient, there is only 1 solution
theres only one set of numbers for contrast and brightness to make them equal
but if its solid colors along the border, then there are infinite solutions
pure sierra
still dont get you
long raft
you need a high and low point on a border to line it up
but most of the borders are just the same height
pure sierra
ok
long raft
the trick is finding a high and low point
pure sierra
no
long raft
the more pieces of the puzzle you solve, the easier it is to find different points
pure sierra
you can still line the edges up, you just wont necossarily get the height internnally scaled correctly to game if all 6 borders are like that
long raft
right, thats the problem
pure sierra
but i think you will be able to use all 6 edges to get it right
one may will linne up the next
long raft
that was my hope
i tried with like 3 and i struggled
maybe visually it is easier to see where these good spots are
i know the method i have is sound, but maybe my tools are too primitive
pure sierra
any way, i wasnt rushing it it, but @tropic cargo is keen
long raft

did any of you see that ms released a web version of vscode? so it's vscode but compiled to run in the browser itself: https://vscode.dev/

nnope
long raft
i thought it was just code server, which is vscode running on a server through the web, but this is a full webapp
and its a progressive web app so you can install it on your phone/pc easy, should work offline
theyre even using that file mapping web api, i want to use that for a video editor. makes remote files a seekable file stream
i wonder if anyone has a good use of that to replace remote file sharing systems like ... samba, nfs
long raft
oh looks like its already integrated with github.dev
evidently you can link people directly to a code editor with your source open now
that's awesome: https://github.dev/NoUDerp/Tiler

hardy crane
does anyone knows, definitively, what counts as an 'enlistment'?
pure sierra
someone joining a map for the first time
hardy crane
someone joining a map for the first time
define that
is it first time since initial deploy
is it first time since restart
pure sierra
since war start
hardy crane
Is that assumed knowledge or did a dev confirm it at some point?
pure sierra
that it resets ?
hardy crane
that the enlistments count from reset
for home region only
and the rest of the regions are from war start
pure sierra
we've graphed it, home region is on reset timer to reset its whole state, the timer is mentioned when you join, this includes the enlistment count which you will see zero at that point too, but the game maps dont reset
the only thing you could try and confirm with devs is if deploy from home vs map border for first time since war start counts as same which we assume it does
you could also verify that it is since war start very easy
just find a empty quiet map, look at the stats, join, quit, restart game and rejoin
pure sierra
make a support tiicket
really it should be taken out as its useless or make it unique across the world
eg
just test it ur self and then tell us 🙂
they might not even know

twin glacier
nope, Ive barely even glanced at the API documentation and contents
maiden basin
@twin glacier Most basically, you can kinda interpret the "deaths per hour" of a map as a sort of seasonal factor variable system (where the "season" is the hour of the day)
Here is an example of a season variable system, using textbook sales per month
Replace "month" with "hour" and "textbook sales" with "deaths" and you can kinda see the idea here
twin glacier
I dont have anywhere close to the programming confidence to try to understand the API yet
twin glacier
<@!269843665961091072> Most basically, you can kinda interpret the "deaths per h...
I can see how this would work in foxhole but there are so many variables over so many time periods
textbook sales have like one time scale over which changes occur
maiden basin
SO yeah that's the hard part,
Some things foxhole deaths depend on is the front being active, how active the frontline is, if there is a clan making an operation, and even the population of the world map
twin glacier
and technically speaking the only way to get around it is to have a FUCKton of data so that you can observe short term and long term variables and monitor their effects
but foxhole is not consistent at all
its like trying to analyze a random walk
maiden basin
This is true, Foxhole is not a stable process, Foxhole in general has a shit ton of special cause variation making it a system that is not in control
twin glacier
the moment you introduce human psychology into the mix, it kind of oversteps the bounds of almost any currently available algorithm or data-modelling procedure
as far as I can tell...
maiden basin
It might be valuable to use forecasting to figure out future deaths/hr to understand how badly a frontline needs shirts using historical data to construct seasonality and then using recent hour deseasonalized data to forecast future deaths/hr (with, for example, a 3 hour data point forecast analysis on deaths/hr)
i just realized that is alot of jargon sorry lmao
basically you could look at how many deaths happened in the last 3ish hours and figure out for the next x amount of hours how many deaths we expect
(3 is an arbitrary number btw)
twin glacier
seasonality = long term predictability? is that a correct definition?
hollow gyro
@twin glacier See the Pins if you're interested in the API I wrote a wiki entry explaining it.
maiden basin
seasonality = long term predictability? is that a correct definition?
To borrow the definition,
seasonality refers to the presence of variations which occur at certain regular intervals either on a weekly basis, monthly basis, or even quarterly (but never up to a year)
twin glacier
literally seasonally, sort of...hmm
maiden basin
You could look at daily or even hourly seasonality
twin glacier
so essentially long term predictability on a set timescale
something might have a pattern that is hourly, something else might have a daily pattern
etc etc
maiden basin
Daily patterns would depend highly on player count
However hourly patterns are highly seasonal
twin glacier
so then if something is deseasonalized then it is for lack of a better term "raw"
and without context
so using "deseasonalized" information you try to predict future information
maiden basin
so then if something is deseasonalized then it is for lack of a better term "raw...
Yes
It is essentially taking the data and making it ignore the seasonality of when that data was taken
twin glacier
gotcha
maiden basin
So like
twin glacier
weather and climate seem like good examples tbh
weather fluctuates hourly but on a scale of years you see much slower trends that are still technically reflected in weather
maiden basin
The deaths/hr for 3 PM is a lot higher than at 6 AM in that graph
twin glacier
just in spurts or blotches
maiden basin
But if you wanted to use the deaths/hr of data points at 5, 6, 7 AM to predict deaths/hr at 9, 10, 11 AM you would deseasonalize it
twin glacier
Ive noticed that peak population seems to be about 2 pm central US time
and the trough around 2am central US
maiden basin
weather and climate seem like good examples tbh
I am pretty sure seasonality got it's name from the seasonal nature of places like ski resorts and having to forecast for them
twin glacier
yeah
maiden basin
Example taken directly from my lecture lmao
You know now that I think about it
You could probably use forecasting to figure out your expected usage of shirts/hr for something like a LS OP
Which definitely sounds like a useful application
maiden basin
Lmao

Ok, but what if your guys decide to die less
this is literally impossible and you fucking know it

you should post that rendering on reddit, get the karma you deserve
long raft
is sentsu your in-game name?
tropic cargo
I'm there yes, I'll post it 😉
pure sierra
good
tropic cargo
yes I am in the 11eRC but currently on break
pure sierra
did you do that render in ps or a 3d modeller ?
tropic cargo
it's a screen of the viewport in Blender
long raft
its surprisingly cool with the rocks at that max height
i imagine in reality the rocks are not the same height, but it looks awesome in that rendering
so sentsu, any chance you ... have record of the contrast/brightness adjustments you made for each map? for the sake of rerunning it in the future if the terrain changes
pure sierra
next logical step
long raft
im kind of ready to automate it if i had the numbers
tropic cargo
I still have all my adjustment layers in Photoshop, I can quickly replace the map if there are any modifications of the terrain to come
long raft
not that i need to rerun it
i think a lot of us strive to make things reproduceable because they change stuff all the time
like roads, omg if theres a way to automate road detection
im wondering how that map mod has road colors, im wondering if the road ID is hidden in another texture or something
long raft
yea i mean .... when they changed roads, in the original dev branch they had 6 colors for the roads (3 types), one for snow contrast, one for non-snow
but by the time it went out of devbranch the roads were all colored orange
tropic cargo
and the road color variation I did by hand based on LogiWaze
long raft
oh ok
i try my best to keep them up to date, when they add new roads i check each one in person
but i think they also change roads that already exist, so those are harder to find
i thought maybe you had figured out a way to identify the roads programatically, but its logiwaze? lol talk about orobouros
i do keep them all as a geojson file tho, so they could be converted to line segments for easy re-rendering when they update
or like, imagine if they were drawn but really wide, and then that was used as the replacement color of the road color
yea it would be easy to convert the geojson to svg
tropic cargo
I could be interested if there are still new updates of the map indeed!
long raft
yes I update it like every 6 weeks roughly
ill make a note to export SVG next time for the roads and save it
next update april 1
tropic cargo
ok thks!

lunar cobalt
Wow
Okay will see how much CAD time I have in the next few days
Because I might be able to laser a map together pretty quickly
lunar cobalt
Yeah I’ve got access to laser engravers/cutters
long raft
how big can it be if made with a laser?
do we have a sense of scale yet? like is there a way we can relate brightness to actual physical heights?
how would we do that even
pure sierra
truck for scale?
long raft
perhaps some trick with binos
lunar cobalt
how big can it be if made with a laser?
Max I could do would be 40x28
pure sierra
inch ?
long raft
years?
lunar cobalt
Inches yeah
long raft
28x38 then (i think map is 5.5:7.5)
pretty close to max size then, wow that would be awesome looking
that smoothing around deadlands is weird.
i wonder if it was a first attempt at joining the maps or because of some inherent difficulty in being the center piece
i think maybe it was just the first way the devs smoothed out borders deadlands has more variation than other maps
magic plank
Inches yeah
Damn

better than mine tbh
unreal cloak
you know the unprocessed maps just draw all roads as the same color, right?
what do you mean?
long raft
oh just drawing the roads. well i identify their type too
unreal cloak
I worked on a team where classic image processing + ML was used to extract road features from EO sattelite and SAR imagery
long raft
yea but the data isnt in there you have to go see in person
unreal cloak
*satellite? that word always trips me up
long raft
it would help draw them, but not label them i guess
long raft
not to my knowledge, and it would only be somewhat helpful
unreal cloak
I dont know the specifics but it was opencv plus deep learning
long raft
i fear it would take longer to train a classifier than just hand draw everything 5 times
unreal cloak
I'm sure you could do some sort of transfer learning to speed up training
if a pre-trained model exists
you did most of Logiwaze right?
long raft
all of the code, about ... 65% of the roads
unreal cloak
all of the code, about ... 65% of the roads
I'm not very well versed in node.js, I made a basic app in express that did some midi stuff, could you point me to the file that actually serves the map tiles?
long raft
serves?
unreal cloak
I was trying to figure out how the server loads the times. Also how is the server run? Did you just deploy it to AWS?
long raft
there is no server
unreal cloak
oh it's all done client-side?
long raft
yes. its hosted on github
unreal cloak
ahh ok
long raft
you can just download the repository and run index.html and it works
the tiles are all in Tiles\
unreal cloak
which part of the API is loading the tiles?
I guess I am confused, I thought node.js was server-side
long raft
i use node to compile the code to a single js i can include in the index.html
node is not only server side
its webpack tho
unreal cloak
ahh ok that makes sense
a lot of the code was above my understanding, I was just wanting to implement the Foxhole map in leaflet as a fun project in React
long raft
yes its messy code too
unreal cloak
I figured the Logiwaze repo was a good place to look
long raft
it is leaflet tho, but dont use logiwaze probably as your example
i rewrote a lot of the leaflet components for it
unreal cloak
I dont understand a lot of the more advanced patterns in Javascript outside of like basic functions and stuff
ahh ok
long raft
its very convoluted
it turns out drawing tons of roads is slow and i had to cache it as rendered raster tiles
yea oof javascript is terrible, hated working in it. i should have used typescript
unreal cloak
how did you get your background in this if you dont mind me asking? I wouldn't even know where to begin for pathfinding on roads like this in Javascript
long raft
oh the background is just the background image taken from the game assets
unreal cloak
yea oof javascript is terrible, hated working in it. i should have used typescri...
I usually use Typescript for work but use Javascript for small projects since I never do anything that needs long-term maintenance
long raft
pathfinding is ya know ... 2nd or 3rd year college CS algorithm
unreal cloak
no I mean like your learning background
long raft
its djikstra's algorithm
unreal cloak
did you just generate the nodegraph yourself?
I assumed you used some sort of library for pathfinding the roads/generating a nodegraph from the roads data
long raft
well there was a plugin for leaflet made by the author that provides routing. but ... its not very good, i had to implement all the difficult parts myself, and now im locked into this dud of a plugin
unreal cloak
ahhh ok
long raft
malarthyn and i drew the roads in QGIS
unreal cloak
yeah I just dont know the details of how you'd generate a nodegraph with Dijkstra from the road vector images
long raft
save as geojson format, some editing in the build process, and they get imported as javascript objects
so you read the geojson and you add them to a graph data structure
unreal cloak
which parts are the nodes? the end points of the roads?
or all of the actual map features?
long raft
its basically the contents of the SVG
unreal cloak
ahh ok I'm unfamiliar with that file format, I know it's vectors so that makes sense
long raft
yea its groupings of line segments
unreal cloak
I also saw a voronoi method, what is that used for?
long raft
really? hmm i dunno maybe i was going to voronoi i cant ... remember
to my knowledge it is not used
long raft
voronoi would only be used to create the color overlay
i went with a different method for that
unreal cloak
ahh ok
gotta say I'm really impressed with this project, it seems like a lot of work went into it
long raft
im not really a web programmer
long raft
graphics or data programmer
unreal cloak
like data science?
unreal cloak
is this like visualization?
unreal cloak
I guess I dont know enough about either domain
long raft
uhh hayden started the project i just kept working on it and made it a thing
unreal cloak
to me data is like classificaiton, regression, prediction
long raft
yes all of those things
unreal cloak
graphics is like OpenGL, Vulkan, DirectX, etc
long raft
but not so much in presentation
unreal cloak

long raft
to me, opengl and directx are just like ... display libraries
unreal cloak
I wouldn't discredit yourself, it's good work
long raft
i do a ton of work in cuda/opencl now
unreal cloak
oh ok so like actually writing libraries or implementing them?
I have a friend who does similar work I think, research at samsung with Nvidia architecture or soemthing
long raft
lately ive been doing video filters
nvidia is so dominant in this area i really should buy stock
unreal cloak
any examples?
long raft
its probably cheaper than a video card
nah no examples logiwaze is my only public work i think
unreal cloak
yeah I noticed your github was pretty spares
sparse
I guess you cant talk about it then
long raft
maybe i should fill it up with more small projects
unreal cloak
I was trying to look through the code because I dont understand most of it
long raft
malarthyn had a lot of feedback and was right about all of it but i dont have a ton of time to work on it
unreal cloak
but the SVG->geojson makes a lot of sense, that was a big piece of the puzzle I couldn't understand
and pathfinding from there is trivial
unreal cloak
I still dont understand how the SVG roads are overlayed onto the tiles
long raft
if you draw those roads every time the user zooms or pans, its agonizing, you can see the vertical refresh happen, its like .1 fps
unreal cloak
I guess if the tiles and webp or whatever format the roads are both have geospatial data then that gets taken care of automatically
are the roads not their own tileset?
long raft
a nice solution would be to pre-cut the roads into segments
unreal cloak
if you draw those roads every time the user zooms or pans, its agonizing, you ca...
since they are a vector, couldnt't they be memoized and the browser just redraws them every zoom?\
long raft
yes but its slow
long raft
drawing that many line segments is rough
theyre being rendered by the browser, with anti aliasing and scaling, all the svg rules
unreal cloak
is there a reason why you dont save the roads as a transparent raster in qgis and then tile them?
long raft
if i saved them as raster they wouldnt be useful for routing
unreal cloak
and then load them into leaflet the same as the map?
oh right because you're doing it all in the browser
long raft
they could be done mathematically ...
unreal cloak
but it just needs the geojson right?
long raft
for example, the build script includes an operation to split roads that intersect borders
i suppose that could be done for squares that represent tiles, and grouped together
unreal cloak
sorry for asking so many questions
long raft
im basically doing this on the fly, but it would be faster if it were precalculated
unreal cloak
I am just curious why the road graphics cant be decoupled from the pathfinding logic
long raft
i guess they could
unreal cloak
is the geojson generated each time you calculate a route?
long raft
well the geojson is just used for storage as a file. theres an in-memory version of the roads
that doesnt really change
but the startup checks each line segment against a grid to separate them
i could reduce startup big time by taking that out
unreal cloak
oh to determine which chunks of the svg to render?
long raft
yes
unreal cloak
I dind't really understand any of the bash scripts
I dont know bash, I'm a fake programmer

also if you wouldn't mind, I would love to help with Logiwaze
I've only been out of school like 2 years so I'm a noob but this is somewhat similar to a project I did at work and I always need a programming project to work on
long raft
im uhh not actively working on it very much
im doing small updates like every 6 months at this point
people make suggestions that are good but maybe too big for me to work on
unreal cloak
I'd like to try and see if I can convert the road svgs to tiles or something
or if it's even possible
long raft
its very possible
unreal cloak
it builds on Windows, right?
long raft
uhh
unreal cloak
I (unfortunately) use windows at home
unreal cloak
I can throw it in a container I guess
long raft
yea i just use the ubuntu install for it
long raft
i imagine the setup necessary for logiwaze build would be uhh...
unreal cloak
I could probably just run it in a devcontainer so I could get hotloading
long raft
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y spatialite-bin gdal-bin npm nodejs
and the build is
npm i
npm run debug
and whatever issues come up with that...
but if i was going to segment the roads, lets see, i'd run the build script once, and it would make the Roads.geojson file needed for testing
unreal cloak
is anyone else active on the project? I see there is a PR out for the roads on the new tiles
long raft
and I'd make a new .js script that segments the polylines, they have to be tested against a rectangle shape, and if they intersect, the line segment needs to be broken and placed in all the grid squares it crosses by piece
uh no i dont think anyone else works on it
i didnt know there was a pull request
unreal cloak
I was thinking I could just open the roads in qgis, save them as a raster, then tile the raster and serve them the same as the map tiles right?
long raft
uhh no
unreal cloak
and then for pathfinding I'd just need to generate the GeoJson at the start I thought
unreal cloak
yes
long raft
so that would work for the background, the road quality, yea totally
unreal cloak
I assume leaflet.js uses a TileProvider object or something similar
long raft
but the warden/colonial roads on top are done dynamically
unreal cloak
I have only messed with Cesium
long raft
those cant be pregenerated because theyre current
unreal cloak
ahhh ok that's a good point
unreal cloak
how is the data stored for the colonial/warden control?
unreal cloak
I mean I guess it could be done with raster tiles but it would lose fidelity
since the tiles have to be square
and at a certain zoom level you lose the granularity
long raft
i saw a suggestion recently, route to nearest VF
its a great idea, and i can sort of envision the UI for it
but when i started building it or thinking about it, ran into problems
do i assume they are warden if the starting point is warden?
unreal cloak
how are you coloring the roads btw?
unreal cloak
Maye have the user select their team initially?
long raft
like their ownership?
unreal cloak
on a splash screen
unreal cloak
lol nvm then
long raft
so i thought ok, find both routes
but often tanks, looking for VF are playing in uncontrolled areas
and its not ... tankwaze
unreal cloak
how are you coloring the roads again? You said voronoi wasn't used?
long raft
but if i could uhh take Roads.geojson, and split it into grids, and then identify their bucket on each segment it would reduce loading time
i use a kriging method
its the same method that does the overlay colors
road control is determined by the values determined by the variogram
the variogram is determined by the control points taken from the API (town halls, etc)
unreal cloak
if we had rasterized roads, could we use that to generate a mask
long raft
but it changes every 5 minutes
unreal cloak
so roads come in as white and get multiplied by the mask to change the png to green/blue
unreal cloak
yeah at the same frequency as the updates
I'm not familiar with doing image manipualtion in js
long raft
yea interesting hmm
unreal cloak
but the coloring data is a geojson right? like a polygon?
unreal cloak
reading the variogram stuff, this is way outside my domain lol
long raft
its not as complicated as it seems
control points -> variogram
then variogram x location = value
unreal cloak
I haven't had a math class in so long that it's difficult for me to know what's going on
but I understand voronoi so I get the basic idea
why would that require 3-6 raster layers?
long raft
so if we are using canvas overlay properties to sort of ... fixed pipeline our math, the multiplication
i need to show warden roads, colonial roads, neutral roads, and then 3 tiers of road quality/type under that
unreal cloak
ahh ok
long raft
so 6 masks
unreal cloak
that might end up taking just as long as the svg then lol
long raft
it might, the svg only needs to be re-rendered when the user scales 2x
unreal cloak
not sure how fast image multiplication is in the browser
long raft
or if they pan and it comes into view
its decently fast, but 6 overlays kind of brutal on mobile devices i suspect
unreal cloak
actually I would imagine loading the png is probably the real bottleneck
long raft
although, maybe not
im doing full copies of everything the user sees to an invisible layer for the purpose of copy-paste
but if that were multiplied by 6, oh god
the biggest bottleneck is uhh loading the roads
unreal cloak
yeah it sounds like the raster would be more trouble than it's worth then
long raft
which includes the api and calculating the variogram and routes
i dunno, drawing svg is very painful in some cases
unreal cloak
I'm glad I've never had to work with SVGs 😆
long raft
if you zoom way out, it has to redraw all the svg at the same time
it would help a lot for zooming out. its something to consider
but id want to see proof of concept before such an expensive investment
like id need to see the canvas operation working properly
and id probably need to get a sense of its speed
yeah geojson is a good format, but SVG is a disaster
unreal cloak
you'd also lose detail on the really close in zooms
long raft
its so insanely complicated that no svg renderer seems to properly support the entire feature set
i think this method could actually improve render quality, currently everything is rendered half quality except the text
i had full HD on but it killed phones
they have a lot of pixels and not enough CPU to support it
its an interesting idea id never considered tho, just need to know how it would work in detail at the overlay level
unreal cloak
I think it wouldn't be too bad except re-coloring the pngs on intersection
the pngs come in with x_y_z in the url I assume, which can be converted to geojson bounds easily enough, it has been a while since I did computer graphics but intersection should be pretty fast
I guess then you'd have to figure out how to take the intersection values and multiply every pixel in the intersection by whatever color you want
but that would ideally be the end of it
long raft
if there was some way to make advantage of all the colors in the pixel to reduce it to like 2 layers
im gonna think about this a bit
unreal cloak
ok yeah lmk if there's anything I can do
I'm very much a noob but like I said this is sort of similar to something I did a while back
long raft
ok
long raft
@unreal cloak it seems like it would make a lot of sense to render at least the road qualities as an image, if you can figure out how to make a script that renders the roads.svg (or roads.geojson) to a png, it would be like half the work
no urgency, but if you do, ill try replacing the current drawing code and see what kind of performance gains are had
unreal cloak
ok I can do that
an easy smell test might be to disable the SVG's and x6 the number of tile imports
if the performance is better than current then it would be worth it
long raft
its gonna be x4 at worst, as i think more about it
unreal cloak
I think the color multiplication will require an SVG and use CSS
but the SVG would just be a polygon
unreal cloak
I'll have to look into that
that's not my strength tho
leaflet is just a canvas right?
long raft
uhh ... i think its got 2 ways
canvas and svg i think
can use an svg canvas
but drawing svg is just ... slow. its hard to do it well live
unreal cloak
hmm ok
I guess we'll have to figure out the best method if we ever get that far
is the geojson for the actual pathfinding just create once or is it created when the path is requested?
I'll have to play around with the repo my self
long raft
it's created in the build i can send it
i dunno if theres any node packages for rendering svg to canvas
unreal cloak
yeah sure thing
ok so all of the pathfinding logic is decoupled from the rendering then?
long raft
yea
unreal cloak
ok I can try tiling those things then
